I've been doing a lot of running the past few months, I usually run 3 to 4 miles every other day. I plan on running several 5K runs in St. Louis with my wife this summer and fall. The first one is the Susan B Komen 5K in June, then The Color Run 5K in August, followed by the Autism Speaks 5K in October. A very important thing for running is having an iPod or iPhone full of great tunes to listen to. I listen to mostly rock and pop music, stuff with a good beat that will keep me moving at a good pace. So here are my favorite running songs.

Since it's 80's month here on IGN, I thought I would share what I like about this era so much, the music. To me the music of the 80's is still great, I loved all the hair metal bands and a lot of the pop artists from that era. Also since I was born in '75, I grew up listening to all the great bands of the 80's and my parents loved the music as well. In the summer of 1985 when I was 12, my parents took me to 3 rock concerts. I saw Bon Jovi with Cinderella, Motley Crue with Whitesnake and Boston in St. Louis that summer, what an awesome summer! Anyway here are some of my favorite songs from the '80's.

Recently I reached 800 followers, so I thought I would do a blog to celebrate the milestone. I started this account in 2010 but didn't become active till May of 2011. I never won the weekly CommNom but I was spotlighted once last year in August, which was pretty cool. I want to thank everyone that follows me, I really appreciate it.

Reason behind the username mario419:

Back in 2010 I made an account in a hurry and I was playing Mario Kart DS at the time, so Mario ended up in the title. The 419 is my street number on my house. I'm not a fan of my username but I'm stuck with it. Yes I do like Nintendo, the 3DS and play a lot of their games but my PS3 still gets played the most and I've always been a huge Sony fan. I like to play the 360 sometimes too.
